Ch 88 — Fer and Sui, Obliterating Wyverns

Wyverns had come to the western grasslands, attacking Adventurers and turning the area into a super-danger zone . I really didn’t want to come here with Fer . No, let me emphasise, I really REALLY didn’t want to be here .

“Would you look at those assholes? Flying around like they owned the place . ” Fer muttered .

1, 2, 3, 4 . . . . . . I counted 12 Wyverns in all . They looked big and ugly . Very big and double-ugly . The flying creatures looked more like Pteranodons in dinosaur movies rather than Wyverns in games . Fer, is it really okay?

“Gyaah, gyaah, gyaaaah . . . ” Even the cries they made sounded evil .

Uh oh, are the Wyverns headed straight for me?

“Ah, you noticed?” Fer said casually .

“Th- they’re coming straight for us! W- what are you doing to stop them!?”

“Don’t panic . You’re safe,” Fer shook his head . “I’ve put up a Barrier like I always do . ”

“No, no, but that’s . . . ”

Sui interrupted . “Are we gonna fight those things?” she said as she jumped out of her bag .

“Hey Sui, don’t get out of your bag, it’s dangerous!” I ordered but she wasn’t listening to me .

“That’s right, Sui . ” Fer said .

“Those big flying things, yeah-?” Sui trembled with eagerness .

“I’ll show you how to hunt flying prey . C’mon . ” Fer continued .

“Yeah . ” Sui said .

“Where are you going? D- don’t just go off and teach Sui weird things . ” Sui-chan . . .

“Your Aruji is going to stay here, Sui . ” Fer shot me a look filled with disgust . “Let’s go, Sui . ”

“Yes-”

“W- wait just a-” Without listening to what I said, Sui followed Fer and headed towards the Wyverns who were now gliding at a low altitude straight for us, attacking us head-on .

“Why won’t you listen-” I complained as Fer and Sui stopped about 300 meters away, directly under the Wyverns .

“Right then, Sui . ” Fer lectured . “When going after flying prey you should aim at their head or their wings . If you hit their head it’s an instant kill . ” Sui listened to Fer’s advice eagerly, trembling in excitement . “Sometimes though the head is too small a target to hit reliably . In that case aim for their wings . Damage the wings and most flying prey will fall to the ground and then you can hunt them there . ” I could hear Fer’s voice resonating in my head as he taught my darling Sui-chan how to hunt dangerous flying creatures . Fer, how could you-?

“OK, head or wing . Sui’ll try it-” W- what’s Sui going to do? Huh? Is that a tentacle? Sui extended her body like a long stick towards a Wyvern .

“Gyah, gyaaaah!” One of the flying Wyverns crashed into the grass .

“Ah-, I missed . I was aiming for its head . ” S- Sui, did you shoot an Acid Bullet from that tentacle? Are you some kind of  sniper?!

“Remember what I said earlier . Since a Wyvern’s head is kinda small you might miss it . However it seems that it was quite a good hit anyway, right at the base of the Wyvern’s wing so it can’t fly anymore . ” Fer explained .

“Wow, I was praised~ . I will hit the next one harder and better, for sure- . ” Sui started to steadily shoot down the Wyverns with her Acid Bullets .
